En cas de divergence entre la version Anglaise et Francaise du document, la version Anglaise definitive est celle qui prevaut.

This privacy policy ("Policy") applies to this Web site and the services provided at the Web site that are operated by Pathway Intelligence, Inc.(the "Site") and sponsored by Corporation of the City of London (the "Site Sponsor") . The Policy is designed to tell You how we collect and use personal information (as defined below) so You can make an informed decision about using our Site. Please read this statement before using our Site or submitting any personal information to us. By using our Site, You represent that You are 18 years old or older and You consent to the information collection and use practices described herein. We reserve the right to change the provisions of this privacy policy at any time by posting a revised privacy policy on the Site and indicating on the privacy policy the date it was last updated.

WHAT IS PERSONAL INFORMATION

As used herein, the term "personal information" means information that specifically identifies an individual (such as user's name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, credit card or other account number) or that is associated with an identifiable person (such as demographic information or information about a person's activities when such information is linked to personally identifying information). Personal information also does not include "aggregated" information, which is data we collect about the use of the Site or categories of Site users, from which any personal information has been removed. For example, information that forty-seven percent of the Site's registered users identify themselves as male, is aggregate information. We collect aggregate data for a number of purposes, including to help us understand trends and user needs so that we can better consider new publications, products and services, and tailor existing publications, products and services to user desires. This policy in no way limits or restricts our collection of aggregate information.

We use this information for purposes such as analyzing trends, administering the Site, improving customer service, diagnosing problems with our servers, tracking user movement within the website, and gathering broad demographic information for aggregate use. We may also automatically collect certain information through the use of "cookies." Cookies are small data files that are stored on a user's hard drive at the request of a Web site to enable the site to recognize users who have previously visited them and retain certain information such as customer preferences and history. If we combine cookies with or link them to any of the personally identifying information, we would treat this information as personal information.
